Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Omaha, NE wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Aug 18, 3:18 PM CDT, 2 hours 34 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Aug 18, 3:18 PM CDT, 2 hours 34 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE OMAHA/VALLEY NE
318 PM CDT THU AUG 18 2011

.DISCUSSION...

TONIGHT...
THE MAIN FORECAST CONCERN IS POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS...
ESPECIALLY PRIOR TO 1 AM CDT. ONGOING MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE SYSTEM
SHOULD CONTINUE TO EXPAND IN COVERAGE...THEN PUSH SOUTHEAST OUT OF
THE AREA. DECENT INSTABILITY WAS NOTED IN 18Z KOAX SOUNDING WITH
CAPE VALUES AROUND 3000 J/KG. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUE WAS OVER
1.50 INCHES AND HAVE HAD SOME RAINFALL REPORTS OVER 1 INCH SO FAR.
SOUTHERLY WINDS SHOULD TURN MORE TOWARD THE EAST AND NORTHEAST
OVERNIGHT WITH LOWS 60 TO 65 NORTH AND MID TO UPPER 60S SOUTH.

TONIGHT THROUGH MID PART OF NEXT WEEK...
A FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL SAG SOUTH
THROUGH THE AREA FRIDAY...BUT IT ONLY LOOKS LIKE A SLIGHT CHANCE
OF STORMS. THE 12Z NAM WAS FAIRLY AGGRESSIVE WITH DEVELOPMENT OF
STORMS NORTHEAST OF A LINE FROM KOFK TO KOMA FRIDAY AFTERNOON.
THAT SEEMED A BIT BULLISH BUT WILL MENTION SOME CHANCE OF SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS IN THE AFTERNOON.

SEVERAL SHORTWAVE TROUGHS WILL MOVE ACROSS THE LOCAL AREA IN THE
NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY. KEPT PREVIOUS
FAIRLY HIGH RAIN CHANCES GOING. TEMPERATURES WILL BE BELOW NORMAL
SATURDAY WITH HIGHS 75 TO 80 NORTH AND 80 TO 85 SOUTH. COOL HIGH
PRESSURE AND DRY CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO BUILD IN FOR SATURDAY
NIGHT...WITH LOWS MOSTLY 60 TO 65 BUT SOME UPPER 50S POSSIBLE
(ESPECIALLY NORTH).

THE PATTERN WILL REMAIN SOMEWHAT UNSETTLED SUNDAY NIGHT INTO
MONDAY NIGHT WITH NORTHWEST FLOW CONTINUING. IT DOES APPEAR THAT
THE 500 MB RIDGE WILL EXPAND EAST FROM THE ROCKIES AND INTO THE
PLAINS WHICH COULD PUSH TEMPERATURES (ESPECIALLY HIGHS) TO ABOVE
NORMAL LEVELS NEXT WEEK. THE 12Z ECMWF SHOWED A FAIRLY DECENT
SHORTWAVE DROPPING DOWN INTO IOWA TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY. THE
GFS WAS NOT AS AGGRESSIVE SO FOR NOW WILL JUST KEEP AN EYE ON
THAT.

&&

.AVIATION...
FOR TAF SITES KOFK/KOMA/KLNK

18Z TAFS

THUNDERSTORMS ARE MOST LIKELY TO AFFECT KOMA BUT MAY ALSO IMPACT
KLNK AND KOFK...MOSTLY PRIOR TO 05Z. SOME VISIBILITY REDUCTION
IS POSSIBLE TOWARD SUNRISE BUT SHOULD BECOME VFR BY MID MORNING.
MVFR CEILINGS APPEAR POSSIBLE FRIDAY AFTERNOON...MAINLY AT KOFK.

.OAX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
